Description

'Blindness' is a profound and thought-provoking novel by Nobel Prize-winning author José Saramago, not Henry Green. The narrative unfolds in an unnamed city struck by a sudden epidemic of blindness that affects nearly everyone, plunging society into chaos. As the government quarantines the afflicted, the novel explores the disintegration of social order and the primal instincts that surface in the face of adversity.Saramago’s unique style features long sentences and minimal punctuation, creating an immersive reading experience that mirrors the confusion and desperation of the blind citizens. Central to the story is the struggle for survival and the moral questions surrounding human nature when stripped of societal norms. The characters, especially a doctor’s wife who retains her sight, serve as beacons of hope and insight in a darkening world. Through 'Blindness,' Saramago challenges readers to reflect on the fragility of civilization and the profound depths of human resilience amidst despair.
